Countdown

Last night I had a dream about one of those countdown clocks. You know, one of those things people put on their web pages that tell how long until something special is going to happen. Like graduation or spring break or vacation or even how long they've been dating someone. In my dream the ticking of the clock was almost deafening. I couldn't see the numbers or the writing so I don't know what's going to happen or when. But today I still heard the ticking.
